Tabitha

I would like to introduce to you all the newest addition to Grace children adoption home. This baby girl was abandoned by her birth mother. The father is unknown. Basically, the mother told the baby's aunt that she was going to throw her away. She came with no identity. So I have named her Tabitha. She was born July 6th and only weighs 5 lbs. Keith and I decided to keep her in our home for a month or so with her being so small and needing attention right now with her umbilical cord. Other than that, she is doing very well for a newborn and adjusting well to feeding.

The day she came to us.

Tabitha now. :)
We found bruises on her arms and hands. We are not sure if these bruises were from delivering her by pulling too tight or from her mother holding her to tight.
